Many thanks to Dan (p0et) for this contribution. Hopefully this is the first of many. Well done... and killer voice, dude!

This video is a companion to "Alternate Data Streams (ADS): Hiding In Plain Site" by myself and Brian Wilson. I am going to show you how Alternate Data Streams (ADS) work and show you a small example of how to make one. ADS is a feature in the NTFS file systems to make a compatibility with HFS, or the old Macintosh Hierarchical File System. ADS has been a function of NTFS since NT 4.0 and is still available in Windows XP (and yes even Windows Vista). ADS gives you the ability to inject/add file data into existing files without affecting their functionality, size, or display in utilities like Windows Explorer or even "dir" under command line.

Outstanding job p0et!!!! Just as an FYI I worked with p0et on this little project and he spent a lot of time to make this video. If you have ever made a computer based video you will understand the time and number of takes you have to put out to get a good product. Keep up the good work Dan (p0et) and I can't wait to see the next video!
